Permanent HGV and LGV driver recruitment across Scotland, built around retention rather than filling a seat for a week.
A permanent hire should still be in the cab next year. That is the standard we recruit to.
Driving employers across Scotland include retail and grocery distribution, food, drink and whisky supply chains, energy logistics and national 3PLs. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.
A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.
Drivers living near Eurocentral — one of the UK's largest rail-connected freight parks — Bellshill and the M8 distribution belt have plenty of choice. We help your vacancy stand out.
From 7.5 tonne multi-drop to Class 1 trunking and the team leaders around them.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.
Indicative permanent salaries in Bothwell run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Basic rate is only part of the offer. Drivers compare shift premiums, overtime rates, guaranteed hours and the age of the fleet. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.
For Bothwell operators with regular routes, a permanent driver brings the consistency customers notice.
We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.
A strong permanent driver brief covers:
Loading live roles…
Category C+E (Class 1), Category C (Class 2) and C1 (7.5 tonne), plus drivers with ADR or HIAB tickets.
Yes. Tell us the legs, the start time and whether nights out are involved, so we approach drivers who want that pattern.
Upload your CV and tell us your licence, your area and the shift pattern you want. We contact you when a permanent role fits.
Yes. Tell us the ticket and the type of loads so we look for drivers who hold it and have used it.
A settled shift, a depot they can reach easily, a well-kept vehicle and pay that matches the local market. We recruit around all four.
